Yang Lin Li Yuyao works

Chapter 46 After Catching Yang Lin

    

as overwhelmed with excitement for a moment."I will definitely do well!"All the women envied her deeply.I have already chosen the location for the house today, and we can officially start construction...Zhao Deyi appointed ten yamen officers, mounted his tall steed, and rode out of the county government office.

Outside the county magistrate's office, Zhou Zhengyang, who was waiting there, saw Zhao Deyi come out and immediately greeted him.

"Hee hee, as expected, Your Lordship has asked me to handle this case."

Zhao Deyi said arrogantly.

Zhou Zhengkun bowed deeply and respectfully said, "Uncle Zhao, let your nephew accompany you!"

"Good!"

They glanced at each other, both letting out a sneer, their understanding unspoken.

After more than an hour, Zhao Deyi arrived at Koushan Village and went straight to Liu Youcai's house.

"Master, Master! The county magistrate is here!"

The housekeeper, who had followed him in, rushed to report.

What

Liu Youcai was astonished. He was completely dumbfounded.

He already spent the silver, what else does the county magistrate need to do

Isn't he being arrested

The steward hurriedly said excitedly, "Master, the Zhou family in the county town has also made a move! The county magistrate's arrival is not for you, but to deal with that Yang Lin!"

Liu Youcai was stunned for a moment, then burst into laughter.

Okay, great!

Liu Youcai was overjoyed.

"Hmph, Yang Lin would never have thought he'd end up suffering the consequences of his own actions!"

"Yang Lin, you're dead this time!"

Liu Youcai clenched his fists tightly and immediately rushed out to greet County Magistrate Zhao Deyi.

Upon entering Liu's grand courtyard, Liu Youcai ordered servants to bring out fine wine and delicacies to entertain the officers. He also respectfully invited Zhao Deyi and Zhou Zhengyang inside.

The door shut, and Liu Youcai instructed someone to prepare even more exquisite wine and dishes. Just as he was about to greet Zhao Deyi, the latter suddenly slammed his fist on the table.

"Good you, Liu Youcai, daring to scheme for wealth and harm life"

Zhao Deyi sat in the center, glaring angrily at Liu Youcai.

Liu Youcai shuddered all of a sudden.

To his credit, he hadn't completely panicked. He instantly understood and hurriedly pulled out a large silver ingot from his sleeve.

"I am innocent, I beg you to see the truth!"

Zhao Deyi calmly accepted the silver, then lightly nodded: "Well, Yang Lin accused you of plotting to murder for financial gain, but this official sees that you are innocent. It must be Yang Lin who is falsely accusing you!"

“Yes, yes, yes!” Liu Youcai quickly replied, “That Yang Lin falsely accused me. Fortunately, Your Lordship has sharp eyes and sees through his lies. Please, Your Lordship, help me out!”

Zhao Deyi let out a hearty laugh and tapped the table lightly with his fingers, saying nonchalantly, "Well, well. This official has always been dedicated to serving the people. However, how to punish Yang Lin depends on your sincerity."

As he spoke, his eyes swept to Liu Youcai, a meaningful smile playing on his lips.

Liu Youcai cursed Zhao Deyi's insatiable greed in his heart, but he was helpless and could only take out another silver ingot.

"Your Honor! Yang Lin is a wicked and cruel person. He has been doing evil things in the village. I beg you to punish him, Your Honor. I am sincere in my request."

Two consecutive pieces of silver, that's twenty taels!

Even an ordinary family would struggle to save this much money in a lifetime. Liu Youcai couldn't help but feel a twinge of pain at the thought.

"Not bad."

Zhao Deyi once again calmly put away the silver, nodding his head.

"This official feels your sincerity, Liu Youcai. Please have a seat as well."

As for how to punish Yang Lin, we still need to think about it in the long run.

Liu Youcai's heart skipped a beat again.

He was just thinking, whether Zhao County Magistrate wasn't satisfied yet, when Zhou Zhengyang beside him coldly said: "This young master and Lord Zhao came here from a busy schedule, it's not just for a mere Yang Lin!"

"Oh"

Liu Youcai was startled and didn't understand what he meant.

Zhou Zhengyang narrowed his eyes and said, "You probably know that Yang Lin has a business selling medicinal water, right"

Liu Youcai's heart skipped a beat, followed by a rapid thumping.

"Master Zhou's meaning is..." Liu Youcai swallowed nervously.

"Well." Zhou Zhengyang waved his hand. "It's not what this young master means, nor is it what Zhao's intentions are, but yours!"

As he spoke, he tapped Liu Youcai's chest with his finger, implying something.

Before Liu Youcai could react, Zhou Zhengyang immediately continued: "Wait, once we catch Yang Lin and subject him to harsh interrogation, I'm sure he'll reveal the recipe for the medicine!"

"After you get the recipe, you will be in charge of producing the potions from then on!"

Liu Youcai's heart skipped a beat, and he was suddenly excited.

He knew too well the value of this medicine!

With Yang Lin's sales method, he could earn as much as ten thousand taels of silver in a year.

Although it's unclear how much profit the potion makes, it's at least a 20-30% profit margin, which is still two or three thousand taels of silver!

Liu Youcai was swallowing nervously, while Zhou Zhengyang gave him a disdainful glance.

"The medicinal herb business, you handle it. It's none of our concern. We only care about the dividends. Lord Zhao takes six tenths, and our Zhou family only needs three tenths."

Zhou Zhengyang stretched out three fingers and said with a smile.

Throughout the entire process, Zhao Deyi only drank tea and didn't say a word.

"This..."

Leave it to yourself to do, and you can only get 10%

How can they take 90% of the profits without doing anything

Liu Youcai's face darkened, and he really wanted to scold someone.

"Hee hee."

Zhao Deyi, who was sipping tea, chuckled softly, put down his cup, and rose to his feet.

Upon seeing this, Liu Youcai immediately panicked and hastily agreed, "No problem!"

He had already recognized Zhao Xianshi's shamelessness. He was certain that if he refused, this Zhao official would probably "uphold justice" and investigate the case.

By then, even with Yang Lin, he'll eat them all!

"It is my honor to be of service to Lord Zhao and Miss Zhou."

Liu Youcai bowed, but in his heart he cursed countless times for their shamelessness!

"Hee hee, refreshing!"

The county magistrate stood up and said, "As I am here to investigate the case, and have now determined that you were wrongly accused, I will not let you sit idly here any longer. You must immediately go and apprehend the criminals."

Saying that, he strode out.

Zhao Deyi strode onto his horse: "All of you, get up! Yang Lin murdered and stole goods, falsely accusing others. Bring him to me!"

"Yes!"

The clerks drank their bowls of wine, grasped their swords, and hurried to follow.

A crowd of people surged towards Yang Lin's house…

At this moment, Yang Lin is at home.

Xiao Ba rushed in from outside, running and shouting, "Master, someone really came! The leader is riding a horse, and he has over ten yamen officers with him!"

When all the women heard this, they panicked at once.

Although Yang Lin had briefed them in the morning, they couldn't help but panic when what he said came true at this moment.

"What are you panicking about!"

Li Yuxiang's icy eyes swept across the crowd.

"If my husband has already thought of it, then what do we have to fear"

"In a small county like Jianghe, I want to see what kind of waves it can make!"

Li Yuxiang said coldly.

At this moment, Li Yuyao truly admired Yang Lin more and more.

He had anticipated that the Liu family wouldn't sit idly by and would retaliate against them.

Therefore, they had made preparations in advance that morning.

"My lady, third sister."

Yang Lin nodded to Li Yuyao and Liao Hongying.

Both nodded and then returned to the house.

As the two returned to their room, a hush fell over the crowd; their hearts were all pounding.ontinue!Guards, lumberjacks, kiln workers, smelters... each group is increased by ten people.The construction team, increase by twenty people!The Mining Team and the Stone-Quarrying Team merged to for...
